He was a member of the Friends Church and the Masonic Lodge at Carthage. The Beher home is at 208 North Main in Carthage.
A native of Jackson Township, he was born December 17, 1887, a son of Oren and Laura Smith Beher, and was married in 1912 to Nell Parish, who survives. Only other survivors are two brothers, G. C. Beher of Anderson and Howard Beher of Elwood.
Preceding him in death were three sisters, Mrs. Ola Stevens, Mrs. Myrtle Holt and Mrs. Abigail Overleese, and two brothers, Lot Beher and T. L. Beher.
The Rev. Frank Guyatt will conduct services at 2 p.m. Friday at the Hampton Mortuary in Carthage, where friends may call after 1:30 p.m. Thursday, with burial in the Little Blue River Wesleyan Methodist Cemetery.
